In the season 3 opener, we find what Joe and Helen have been up to since Helen left Nantucket in the second season closer. Helen has made her way to New York, though was unsuccessful at getting her music career to take off. Joe, meanwhile, has moved on romantically in Helen's absence. He has a new girlfriend named Gayle. Brian and Joe go out to New York to find Helen, ultimately bringing her back to Nantucket after discovering what a mess her life is. Unfortunately, Joe doesn't disclose to Helen that he's not on the market anymore. This sends Helen up the wall and she rams her Jeep into his office, destroying it.
In my opinion, Helen's actions aren't justifiable. She was gone for months without contact. Joe had no choice but to assume she wasn't coming back. I don't like the way Helen's character changes in these next few episodes of the season. She becomes a real brat and Joe has to suffer the consequences.
